INTRODUCTION
This Greek Philosopher's quotation remind me of the 's message, he asked me to re-read steemithelp.

Being in Steemit feels like on the heaby traffic roadway. Thus, we need to stop for awhile to check ourself.
Aristotle was right, "knowing yourself is the beginning of wisdom". This is not about the rules, but this is about how to keep reputation by keeping ethics in the path (media) of decentralized platform. So, nothing can stop us, but ourself.
Nobody can stop you. That is the nature of a decentralized platform - Introduction

MY OPINION
After I read those 30 guidelines, I realize that there are so many things about myself that I have to fix, and I declare my readines to change. These guidelines are very important, and the keyword is ready to change.
Three of those guidelines really touch my heart. I thank to the writer who wrote it. This is amazing, touchy, and get along with my heart. It is needed by all who dream about a betteer world.
The guidelines are DO ADMIT WHEN YOU ARE WRONG / DO APOLOGISE, DO FORGIVE PEOPLE and DO TAKE A STEP BACK.
I am happy in Steemit. I do not find it in other media. Steemit is not an ordinary media, Steemit is nice people's dream. The world in peace that full of love and cares.
Therefore I agree with the guidelines DO HELP OTHERS OUT AND DO THANK PEOPLE and DO SHARE GREAT POSTS. Because it is important I quote completely:
DO HELP OTHERS OUT AND DO THANK PEOPLE:
A lot of us know cryptocurrencies and are familiar with the concepts. That does not apply to everyone on Steemit. Everyone has to start somewhere and if you find someone who needs help or has a question don't wait for someone else to act - help them out yourself if you can. That is a fundamental of a good community. Also don't forget to thank people and pass on the good will.
DO SHARE GREAT POSTS:
There are links at the bottom of every post that allowing sharing on Twitter, Facebook and LinkedIn. Be a good citizen and help to spread good content by sharing it on other social networks and also posting links in the "postpromotion-other-only" chat channel. This not only helps out the poster but helps to spread the word about Steemit by showing people what great content is available. Steemit should not just be "every person for himself/herself".
ENDING
At the end, I suggest to my dearest friends to stop for a while, read again steemithelp before continue your journey.
